Problem/activity:
Find the general solution for:
$${\mathrm{cos}\left({\pi\over2}+x\right)=\mathrm{tan}{\pi\over4}}$$


Standard options: 
A. Prove the Pythagorean identity sin^(2)(θ) + cos^(2)(θ) = 1 and use it to find sin(θ), cos(θ),or tan(θ) given sin(θ), cos(θ), or tan(θ) and the quadrant of the angle.
B. Prove the addition and subtraction formulas for sine, cosine, and tangent and use them to solve problems.


Thought: An initial step when solving for x in this problem requires the use of the addition formula for cosine on the left side of the equation. Solving this problem does not require use of the Pythagorean identity.
Answer: B

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions plotted in the coordinate plane, often forming a curve (which could be a line).

Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = f(x) and y = g(x) intersect are the solutions of the equation f(x) = g(x); find the solutions approximately, e.g., using technology to graph the functions, make tables of values, or find successive approximations. Include cases where f(x) and/or g(x) are linear, polynomial, rational, absolute value, exponential, and logarithmic functions.

Graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half plane (excluding the boundary in the case of a strict inequality), and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes.
problem_activity: Task
When Marcus started high school, his grandmother opened a college savings account. On the first day of each school year she deposited money into the account:  \$1000 in his freshmen year, \$600 in his sophomore year, \$1100 in his junior year and \$900 in his senior year. The account earns interest of $r\%$ at the end of each year. When Marcus starts college after four years, he gets the balance of the savings account plus an extra \$500.
If $r$ is the annual interest rate of the bank account, the at the end of the year the balance in the account is multiplied by a growth factor of $x=1+r$. Find an expression for the total amount of money Marcus receives from his grandmother as a function of this annual growth factor $x.$
Suppose that altogether he receives \$4400 from his grandmother.  Use appropriate technology to find the interest rate that the bank account earned.
How much total interest did the bank account earn over the four years?
Suppose the bank account had been opened when Marcus started Kindergarten. Describe how the expression for the amount of money at the start of college would change. Give an example of what it might look like.
